Installation Step 7

Install the Lights and the Lenses

Install the lights:

• Install a 75 watt maximum light bulb in each

socket. The lights will turn ON and remain lit for

approximately 4-1/2 minutes when power is

connected. Then the lights will turn OFF.

• If the bulbs burn out prematurely due to vibration,

replace them with standard neck "Garage Door

Opener" bulbs.

Install the lenses:

• Apply slight pressure on the sides of each lens

and slide the tabs into the slots in the side panels.

• For convenience, the lenses may be installed

after Adjustment Step 4 on page 30.

• Reverse the procedure to remove the lenses.

75 Watt Max.

Installation Step 8

Attach the Emergency

Release Rope and Handle

Do not use the red handle to pull the door

open or closed. The rope knot could become

untied and you could fall. Use the emergency

release only to disengage the trolley and, if
possible, only when the door is closed.

Garage doors are heavy. If the door is open

when the handle is pulled, the door could

close inadvertently if it is not properly
balanced. Serious injury may result to persons
under the door. Make sure the doorway is clear
of persons and obstructions before pulling
handle when door is open.

• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the

top of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right side

up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot.

The knot should be at least 1" from the end of the
rope to prevent slipping.

• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole in

the release arm of the outer trolley.

• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet above the

floor. Secure with an overhand knot.

If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut
end with a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.
